Visitor Center
by Frey Norris Gallery and Annex
Location: Frey Norris Gallery and Annex
Artist(s): Mary Anne KLUTH
Date: 9 Jul - 27 Aug 2011

Presented in the venerable tradition of the faux-museum, Kluth's photographs, paintings, and sculptures literally and imaginatively unpack the rock collection amassed by her geologist father over four decades of travel across four continents.

Celebrating disinformation and irrational organization, and using a personal visual vocabulary drawing on educational dioramas, interior decoration, and theme parks, the works in this exhibition attempt something impossible, to access the landscapes and narratives of another person's life through its accumulated objects.

By abstracting from the rocks themselves, Kluth grapples with the insufficiency of recreation and retelling in the face of the impassible mysteries of immediate family.

Kluth is a Bay Area based artist, curator and writer. Visitor Center is her second exhibition with Frey Norris.
